My colleagues have died. | |
 | ||
Technology Liberation Alliance Heathcliff |
Three, five? Maybe six. | |
Technology Liberation Alliance Heathcliff |
The number doesn't matter anymore. | |
Technology Liberation Alliance Heathcliff |
They were all killed by those wretched new technologies that won't stop springing up. | |
Technology Liberation Alliance Heathcliff |
One lost their job and starved, one got their flesh taken apart. Others worked like cogs in the machine, treated like subhuman junk. | |
Technology Liberation Alliance Heathcliff |
They were all diligent chums. I was thankful that they were good to a bloke like me. | |
Technology Liberation Alliance Heathcliff |
...'Course, I never showed it. | |
Technology Liberation Alliance Heathcliff |
I was one lucky bugger. | |
Technology Liberation Alliance Heathcliff |
I at least didn't get swept up by rushing waves of technology and die. | |
Technology Liberation Alliance Heathcliff |
I ran off and roamed the Backstreets like a thrown away umbrella until they took me in... | |
Technology Liberation Alliance Heathcliff |
But I guess I didn't deserve 'em after all. | |
Technology Liberation Alliance Heathcliff |
In the end, they'd all go away, like wet paper being torn away. | |
Technology Liberation Alliance Heathcliff |
And the regret and shame I felt as I watched it all happen had my anger boiling. | |
Technology Liberation Alliance Heathcliff |
Maybe, if technology didn't exist as they said... | |
Technology Liberation Alliance Heathcliff |
I could've been laughing and fooling around at a Backstreets pub with chums that could've been alive. | |
Technology Liberation Alliance Heathcliff |
So I decided to get as serious as I could be and ravage all I can this time for sure. | |
Technology Liberation Alliance Heathcliff |
They work on science and technology to make life comfortable, but those things end up taking lives. It's why I started thinking that things like those shouldn't have existed in the first place. | |
Technology Liberation Alliance Heathcliff |
Us survivors dug into the rotten remains of a fallen Wing that once stood at the top of technological progress, and put on what they called E.G.O. Products of technology we detested. | |
Technology Liberation Alliance Heathcliff |
It's ridiculous to think that technology would have a mind, but it seems like this thing does. As soon as I wore this thing, cold and dark feelings rushed into my heart. | |
Technology Liberation Alliance Heathcliff |
An endless swirl of gloom wrapped around me. But as it did, I got the feeling that maybe this thing was like me. | |
Technology Liberation Alliance Heathcliff |
Maybe, just like I did in the past... this thing once had a friend, but got driven out and abandoned. | |
Technology Liberation Alliance Heathcliff |
Thinking like that... Hah. It gave me motivation to fight. | |
Technology Liberation Alliance Heathcliff |
It helped me take down all the crooks trying to protect their damned technology and drown it all so they'd never see the light of day again. | |
Technology Liberation Alliance Heathcliff |
That's not gonna bring my colleagues back from the dead, of course. | |
Technology Liberation Alliance Heathcliff |
At least I'll reduce the number of people that'll end up like us a fair bit. | |
Technology Liberation Alliance Heathcliff |
But... | |
 | ||
Technology Liberation Alliance Heathcliff |
When I'm done, the chill reminds me that I'm alone. | |
Technology Liberation Alliance Heathcliff |
I go back to wandering damp, dark alleys... | |
Technology Liberation Alliance Heathcliff |
Now I can hardly sleep anywhere else. | |
Technology Liberation Alliance Heathcliff |
Dammit, maybe this E.G.O thing will do me in one day, like how technology doomed all my mates. | |
Technology Liberation Alliance Heathcliff |
What a farce that'd be. | |
Technology Liberation Alliance Heathcliff |
...Whatever. Thinking more won't give me any answers. | |
Technology Liberation Alliance Heathcliff |
Once I'm done with this job, I'll go back with pride... | |
Technology Liberation Alliance Heathcliff |
Once the new world is made... I'll have another chance... | |
Technology Liberation Alliance Heathcliff |
You leave now. Don't try and give me attention. | |
Technology Liberation Alliance Heathcliff |
I have no friends left now. | |
